Responses to Show's Preliminary Q&amp;AWHAT DO YOU DO FOR A LIVING AND IS IT RELATED TO CLASSIC CARS OR MUSTANGS?I am a freelance designer, writer and photographer for not only Mustang books, but hobby "how-to" books on scale modeling.

EXPLAIN PLEASEWhen I owned it, I did all my work myself, except for brakes, etc.WHAT PLANS DO YOU HAVE FOR IMPROVEMENTS/RESTORATION/MODIFICATION OF YOUR CLASSIC CAR?I would have totally restored my GT/CS, but I chose to spend my money on telling the GT/CS story in my books (1988, 2011).WHAT ARE YOU PROMOTING?Paul’s Book: Mustang GT/CS Recognition Guide &amp; Owner's Manual: Limited EditionLet’s make my GT/CS Recognition Guide books, available for $395.00.  New condition, signed and numbered.Reach out to Paul directly pmndesigns@earthlink.netAUCTION UPDATEBullitt Auction Information: https://ktla.com/2020/01/10/1968-ford-mustang-gt-in-bullitt-becomes-most-valuable-mustang-ever-sold-at-auction/Have an idea for the show or think you'd make a great guest, send an email to the host:doug@turnkeypodcast.comThanks for listening, keep it safe, keep in rollin’ and keep it on the road!
